Not sure what to say?

Our thoughts are with your Family at this most difficult time May your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times with your loved one and may the God of all comfort be with you at this time and in the days to follow. 2Cointhians 1:2-4.

I am a fellow rope access professional and met Clem a couple times at conferences. He was always approachable, personable, and very friendly. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

Clem, you will be so missed in so many ways.

Clem was a true gem! Our loss is Heaven's gain. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Clem,

We had many adventures together as co-founders of the "Old Fat Man's Climbing Club". I will never forget your famous saying, "Looks good from here.. You go first!" I am sad to hear that you went first into this next adventure.

You've left a hole that can never be filled my ol Lee High School room mate.

Clem was an inspiration and mentor to many. I am proud to be a part of the caving family that he made better, stronger and safer. Clem is missed.

Janette, I was so sorry to hear about Clem. I know that he has fought a hard battle. I'm so glad you all had these last few months with him. Nothing will ever take away the memories.

Janette - I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You & your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
